Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Me too. BBC news last night devoted half it's programme on this subject. Did Grenfall or Manchester get that much coverage?

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Ok it's just two people getting engaged but some cheerful news featuring a ginger and an American who isn't a complete ar$e is quite refreshing! I'm happy for Harry, he seems a good sort and she isn't a blonde society bimbo.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Looks like Harry is gonna do a 'princess Margaret' have all the privileges and none of the responsibilities of being a royal. Yeah, sick of hearing about it already - and it will be discussed and dissected 'ad nauseum' until the wedding. Gives the womans mags something to chew over. Wonder if James Hewitt will be getting an invite ? https://rochdaleherald.co.uk/2017/11...ys-engagement/

Hopefully a national holiday will be announced and on the day we can all go out and play on two wheels on quiet roads . . .

Flat batteries/batteries that wont hold their charge especially evident when the temperature takes a drop. Damn fiddly to get the battery off and on a Speedmaster. Who designs this stuff?

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
OMG I misread the headlines as 'Prince Harry to marry Megan Merkel' - thought we were trying to forge an alliance with Germany through marriage....
